TWD and Associates Inc., McLean, Virginia, is being awarded an $8,367,860 cost-plus-fixed-fee modification to previously awarded contract N00174-17-C-0005 for information technology (IT) support services for continued enhancement, operation, maintenance, and life-cycle support for software and systems applications supporting mission command networks, systems, and operations. TWD and Associates Inc. is the incumbent currently providing these services for NAVSEA Headquarters, 00I. TWD's contractor personnel represent a deep knowledge of the IT certification and accreditation process. Expert knowledge in this process is critical to assuring that systems are secure and accredited. Without TWD's continuity of support,lapses in certification and accreditation of IT systems create significant risks to Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA)'s cybersecurity. A short delay in services would create a backlog of systems that require accreditation resulting in persistent, exploitable system vulnerabilities undermining the entire command's cybersecurity. Cyber-threats of this nature directly impact our national security. As it is critical that no lapse in IT support services is incurred, this bridge effort will provide the necessary services until a full and open competition can be awarded. Currently, the follow-on solicitation will be awarded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. For these reasons, TWD and Associates Inc. is currently the only source capable of providing the required support. Work will be performed at NAVSEA Headquarters in Washington, District of Columbia, and is expected to be completed by September 2018. Fiscal 2018 operations and maintenance (Navy) funding in the amount of $4,330,000 will be obligated at time of award. Contract funds will not expire at the end of the current fiscal year.

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Indian Head Explosive Ordnance Disposal Technology Division, Indian Head, Maryland, is the contracting activity.
